Let me get this right.....
This is the best advert a multinational company with billions in assets can produce?
Ken
Apparently you are forgetting the advertising train wreck that was the Jerry Seinfeld series of ads. The ads so bad that they were to be a "series" until no one got them or cared about them. They told Jerry just to keep the money and GTFO. That is Microsoft.

I'm not a spammer. I practice law in Jacksonville, Florida. I first saw N.O.A at Breckenridge Jewelers while on a snowboarding trip last week. The N.O.A display case was right next to the Panerai display case.
I'm torn between buying a high end replica (which is something I've only recently considered) or a genuine N.O.A.
I'm not sure why the site is a "cheap site," and it may very well be. That's why I joined this forum.
Thanks.
Sorry but we see a lot of posts similar to yours trying to drive up traffic to a site. The generic looking flash site is what I was calling cheap.
-
This guy has made two posts, both link to that cheap site.

This smells like spam!

Crap,
I had my hopes up to come here and see if Dave123 ripped this one to shreds as being inaccurate so that I could save some money this week. Guess I will wait for the full review
Thanks Lanikai!

HE IS NOT 13 YEARS OLD!
He has been a watchmaker for 13 years! I keep seeing this posted, he said in a post about something he was working on eight years ago, are you telling me he was engineering projects at 5?

I read it as the GMT movement will break and be a door stop, paper weight, boat anchor.

Tried on gen this model and gold-- they will do a gold i think, the Black and gold is styling, all the pieces are there, just plate the stainless and your done !!!! no brainer- my dad wiould love that piece, i can't do gold
also, lume, haven' tried, haevn't even sized it yet
lume is so eh - it looks cool for 30 seconds in an elevator or on a dark Disney ride.
I am not that familiar with UN, how much is the gen of the SS rep you purchased? Might be nice to know since Josh has one that we paid for.
-
My Omega saved my life one time. I was out drinking one night and ended up boning this fat chick. After I was done I looked at her and realized my mistake. I looked at the lume on my seamaster in the night, glowing like a lighthouse, jumped up and said "[censored], it is late, I gotta go!" and ran out the door. I never told anyone about it until today.

That is some great driving, the Chevy is bouncing all over the place on some of those exits! The Americans seemed to have desinged a car that goes around corners
GM is taking their handling characteristics much more seriously now than they previously were. They own an office and garage at the 'ring and they tested the new Vettes as well as the Camaro and CTS Cadillac there. The new CTS-V will outrun the new M3 BMW. They even tested the Cobalt SS at the ring.
-
I was the one who purchased this and dvn is to be commended on his honesty. I have dealt with lesser people (yes even on here) who would have just dumped the thing in a box and claimed it was damaged in shipping.
-
Omega has had Phelps on contract for a long time. I bet they got a bargain as they bought into him when no one else was interested.
-
Wouldn't it be cool, if some trusted dealers had YouTube videos for their products?
Yes, it would be cool. It would be just as cool to send letters to Rolex, Panerai, etc. stating that we all wear fakes and enclose a SASE for some hate mail.
I really don't understand why people [censored] themselves about how you can't wear reps to an AD and no one says anything about Youtube vids. The Youtube vid will be caught by a million or so more people.

Punch out Goose!
Maverick, you can be my wingman any time!
Take me to bed or lose me forever.
Ok, now that I got that out of my system I agree that it is pretty dumbass to have Top Gun on a 10k watch. But having Sly Stallone on a high dollar Panerai ain't any better.
-
I thought the well accepted consensus is that it is impossible to overwind a watch, is anyone else remembering reading that by Z?

iphone is simply the best phone on the market.
too bad the 3G feels sooo much cheaper than the old iPhone!
The "old" phone is the one I just broke! I would hate to find a cheaper one!
-
The iPhone does "miss" a lot of the internet by being unable to display it. Any website with Macromedia (now Adobe) Flash and you are SOL. I don't know if you have noticed but a crap ton of websites use flash.
-
Having been through two iPhones and multiple repair shipments back and forth I can say that in my opinion it is the most overrated pos phone ever produced. [censored] poor battery life and is way too fragile for day to day use. My most recent one the screen cracked from a fall of about 18 inches vertically onto a pile of sweaters.
-
I never liked mine, but I had it on a bracelet. Methinks I need to buy a new one on rubber.
Which version is this? I can't see anything at 3 o'clock.
-
.... the omega is almost as good-IMO...
I think what you really meant to type is that the Omega is significantly better and much less grossly overpriced than the Rolex offerings. A Sub feels like a toy compared to a PO. It's ok, we forgive you this time for your typing error.
-
I knew I liked Freddy for a reason. I also play gee-tar. I like the Marshall and the Rick photos, but I am a Gibson man myself.
I have a question before I post mine, are [censored] a hobby?
-
I would rather see the casino ad than those horrible Google ads for replica watches.

It seems there was a mix up at the factory (in china) on that day cos the orange chrono hand and subdial colour should only be on the brown dial/bezel carrera
and i think the blue dial carrera too. There is 2 black dial models, one is the tachy racing (red chrono hands and silver lining on the subdials) and one is the non racing black carrera (silver subdials and silver chrono hands).
Go to the Tag website you can see them all there.
I would try to source another carrera on the cheap maybe used, and swap the pieces you need to make it accurate.
In terms of the solid feeling and weight of the carrera case, the reps are the real deal. Infact if you closed your eyes and put one in each hand you would probably not be able to tell the difference.
So get yourself the correct dial and hand colour combinations and a ETA movement swap with correct date font, swap the rotor from the rep (cos it has the correct Tag engraving and is interchangable as its also a 7750) As tag do no modifying to the 7750 ETA eubache in the carrera and you have a gen minus the paperwork and box!
its worth the money and time if you can afford it as you will enjoy wearing it with pride.
Goodluck.
Thanks for bumping an ancient thread, but Tag does engrave and "cut out" some sections on the rotor so a stock 7750 will still be singled out as a rep by viewing the back.
Another example of how microsoft does not get it!

I have not got around to it beause I am still sore over the screwing I got testing Vista, but driver support is supposed to be pretty good in this beta. I heard that the Windows 7 is just a tuned up version of Vista, de-Vistaed if that makes sense.
